November 2024
President's Message
It's NOVEMBER
The leaves are falling fast
Stronger winds blowing Darker nights
Snuggling up by the fire And then the SNOW!
Brrrr!!
Happy November every one, although November is not one of my favorite months with its darker shorter days, it seems apt as we remember all those who have fought in the two world wars and all the other wars up to the present times and have lost their lives for the hope of peace.
In Flanders Fields
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
